"I am very satisfied with the job that they did to my townhouse. They removed about 700 square feet of asbestos popcorn ceiling from the upstairs of my house. They did a very conscientious and careful job. I cannot thank them enough for their IMMACULATE cleanup. Not a speck of popcorn dust to be found anywhere. They were very respectful of my home and my belongings. And to top it off, they are incredibly punctual. The price was very fair in comparison with other companies. In my search for estimates from other asbestos removal companies, it seems to me that other companies are middle men and charge a premium for their middle men services. In contrast, I believe that this company does its own asbestos work, and I can't express enough how much I appreciate that and the savings in cost. I will definitely hire them again for my next project."

"Be sure to specify the height of your ceilings. They did not come prepared with a ladder so they could check the cathedral ceilings in our living area which is what we were most concerned about when we hired them. We "made do" with checking other places in the house and fortunately no asbestos!! So it was worth the price to have that knowledge. They were on time and very professional."

"Trent is a solid guy. He is honest and caring, wants to do great work and help the people that work for him do a great job too. I was a bit nervous as my first time doing anything with asbestos, so I contacted Trent a bit more than the average customer. Trent was polite and clear, asking me to have patience and allow him to contact me once he had updates. I appreciated the feedback and that Trent was fine with me asking him questions about what was going on. He explained to me what he was doing each step of the way and made me feel prioritized as a customer and a person. I would highly recommend Trent and his crew to anyone who wants asbestos removal done at a fair price with reputable people. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure to move anything of mine out of the way as to not damage it. They also told us to stay out of the house until it was cleared of asbestos from air quality testing, valuing our safety. He got the job done quick and done well! Thank you, Trent and the rest of Tracco!"

"My initial contact, David, with the company was great. When I got handed off to the local company that would be taking care of the paperwork and scheduling several things got lost in translation and my project was delayed from the original promised date of completion. I spoke with my original contact and everything was back on track. The third group of people, the ones that showed up at my house, were also great. This was a tiring process but finding asbestos in your house is not easy either way. I would use this company again if I needed it."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

You are not really supposed to seal asbestos with paint, but in theory it could work—the caveat being that this is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. The only real way to seal asbestos is with the professional application of an encapsulating material like epoxy. Due to the negative effect asbestos can have on your home, however, it is usually the best course of action to accept a costly fix and remove the material entirely.

Some pros may recommend covering a popcorn ceiling that tests positive for asbestos with beadboard ceiling planks or drywall. The cost to install a beadboard ceiling averages more than $5,000, but you likely will pay more than the average for the installer to deal with the asbestos safely. Installing a beadboard ceiling or new drywall will disturb the asbestos and release some microscopic fibers, so the installer will need to take precautions. 

Scraping off asbestos siding is extremely dangerous. When asbestos is inert, it does not pose a risk, but once disturbed, the fibers enter the air that you breathe and can cause irreparable damage. Professionals may scrape it off, but they will have more protective equipment and specialized tools that most homeowners do not have on hand.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

To seal off, or encapsulate, asbestos-containing materials in your home, you’ll need to utilize a sealant specifically designed for asbestos encapsulation. These sealants bind with asbestos fibers to keep them from spreading throughout the air and causing bodily harm. In many cases, these sealants can be simply painted on, but you’ll need to wear a protective body suit as well as an asbestos-rated respirator to interact with these materials safely.
